Faro Dolphin Watching Tour

At the selected time, we will meet at Faro Marina, where the group will board the tour boat. We'll start by heading into Ría Formosa Estuary, where we can enjoy the incredible landscapes this famous Algarve natural oasis is known for.

Then, we'll slowly make our way into open water, where we can begin our search for some of the local aquatic mammals. When you least expect it, dolphins will start approaching. You'll get the chance to see the dolphins up close and learn all about these majestic animals.

If we're lucky, we might even see some sharks and whales. Local bird species will also be abundant as we navigate Atlantic waters, making for plenty of photo opportunities along the way. Bird species frequently spotted in this area include northern gannets, shearwaters, skuas, and more.

After two and a half to three hours of exploring, the boat will head back through Ría Formosa Estuary and return to our starting point.
